Chapter 7: The talented Xu Gongzi
"Boss, how much do these earrings cost?"
Seeing this, Xu Lan also opened her mouth to look at the boss, and it could be seen from Chen Ci's expression that she seemed to like this pair of earrings very much.
"Ten thousand taels."
Who would have thought that the stall owner would speak amazingly, and even Chen Ci subconsciously put down the pair of earrings in his hand.
A pair of earrings for 10,000 taels?
Chen Ci shook his head, although these earrings are delicate and beautiful, they are far less than 10,000 taels.
"Boss, you're so nice."
Xu Lan opened his mouth and said: "You can obviously grab it openly, but you are still willing to give a pair of earrings." ”
As soon as these words came out, Qingluan and Hongluan were already leaning forward and backward with laughter, and even the corners of Chen Ci's mouth rose slightly.
This person is also interesting.
"Haha, just kidding."
The boss smiled and pointed to the plaque next to him and said, "If you don't want to pay for it, then solve the puzzle and guess the word." ”
It was only then that Xu Lan noticed that there was a wooden plaque next to it, which said that as long as you solve the puzzle and guess the word, you can take away any thing in the store.
"It's funny..."
Xu Lan thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll try it." ”
"If this boy wants to try, he only needs ten taels of silver for each participation."
The boss looked Xu Lan up and down, shook his head and said, "But I have to say it in advance, I don't know how many Qingzhou talents have been stumped by solving puzzles and guessing words here." ”
"Qingluan, pay."
Xu Lan said with a smile: "The boss is so calculating, he guessed the maximum loss of five taels of silver, and the net profit of ten taels if he didn't guess." ”
"Doing business is what you want me to do."
After being broken, the boss said happily: "As long as the son can guess, I will offer whatever I want with both hands!" ”
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Xu Lan decided to teach the young boss a good lesson,
Solving puzzles may be difficult for others, but don't forget what he did in his last life.
As a senior archaeologist, others dare not say that it is really difficult for me to solve puzzles and guess words.
The boss seems to have seen too much of this kind of boy who wants to be in the limelight with a few girls around him.
It's a pity,
It's not so easy to be in the limelight.
"Childe, please."
Then he took out a few different colored bags from under the counter and put them in front of Xu Lan one by one.
"Boss, are you too much of a bully?"
Qingluan on the side said angrily: "I don't even let others know the topic, how can I choose this?" ”
"Hehe, that's the rules of our store."
The boss took out the pen and ink that had been prepared while he was happy, he wanted to see how many ten taels this boy could give him today.
"It doesn't matter."
Xu Lan randomly selected a purple bag, then opened it and took out the note inside.
"Listen to the wind in the back village boudoir - guess a word"
The two women, Qingluan and Hongluan, came over to take a look and shook their heads, obviously they didn't know anything about it.
As for the rhetoric...
It may be easy to let her kill someone, but let her guess the word puzzle forget it.
"If Childe can't solve this puzzle, he only needs to hand in another ten taels of silver to change another bag."
The boss smiled and said, "Maybe next time I'll switch to the puzzle I'm good at." ”
"Black-hearted profiteers!"
Qingluan muttered softly, this is too dark!
"Who says I won't?"
Xu Lan smiled slightly, and then picked up the pen and ink on the table and wrote a word.
Envelope.
"You... You... You..."
The boss's face changed slightly when he saw the word "seal" on the note, and even his speech began to stutter.
Because... Xu Lan guessed right.
"The boss shouldn't regret it, right?"
Xu Lan squatted down as he spoke, holding the pair of earrings that Chen Ci had just taken a fancy to in his hand.
"How can it be, opening the door to do business is naturally based on integrity."
The boss was slightly embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"That's good."
Xu Lan handed the earrings in his hand to Chen Ci and said with a smile: "Girl, you shouldn't refuse, right?" ”
"Xu Gongzi has a heart."
Seeing that Xu Lan was going to give him a pair of earrings, Chen Ci hesitated slightly, but in the end he did not refuse Xu Lan's kindness.
Before I knew it, a blush crept up my face from my neck.
"It's rare for a girl to go out in casual clothes today, why don't you try these earrings?"
Xu Lan tilted his head slightly to look at the Chen Ci in front of him, and said, "Why don't I help the girl put it on." ”
"No, no... No. ”
The moment Xu Lan's slightly warm palm touched her ear, she felt her heart almost jump out of her throat.
Although he was born in the Hanging Mirror Division, he even had a lot of blood on his hands,
But it was the first time she had been so close to a man, and she was so nervous that she forgot that she could actually refuse Xu Lan.
After a while, Xu Lan took a few steps back, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Yes, it's very suitable." ”
"Really, these earrings are really suitable for Sister Chen."
Qingluan couldn't help but show envious eyes, how could any girl not like these small things?
"Childe has such a good eye."
Hongluan is also very envious, if the son is willing to give them a pair of earrings, it is estimated that they will be so happy that they can't sleep for a year.
"Really.. Are you sure? ”
Chen Ci coughed lightly a few times to hide his embarrassment, although he was a little unconfident in his tone, he subconsciously touched his earlobe.
It seems like... That's good.
"Childe is only eight buckets high, I don't know Gao's surname?"
At this time, the boss came back to his senses and clasped his fists at Xu Lan and asked: "Just now I had eyes and didn't know Mount Tai, if you have any offense, please Haihan." ”
Regarding the change in the boss's attitude, Xu Lan was also dumbfounded.
"It's just a scholar, not a big name."
Xu Lan looked at the boss in front of him with a smile and asked, "I think the boss shouldn't mind continuing to do my business, right?" ”
Boss:......
"Qingluan, take out a hundred taels and give it to this boss."
Hearing this, Qingluan also smiled, and took out a silver ticket with a face value of one hundred taels from the money bag he carried with him and put it on the counter.
Originally, Xu Lan simply wanted to give Chen Ci a gift, but the boss seemed to be wronged in his words.
Then he doesn't mind letting this boss have a long memory.
"Don't don't, there are a lot of them, so you can raise your noble hand and let me go."
The boss hurriedly smiled bitterly and said, "A small business, I can't stand the toss." ”
I have to say that this boss is indeed a human spirit.
Xu Lan only guessed once, and he already had a premonition that he had kicked the iron plate.
If Xu Lan continues to guess, then he will definitely be the one who suffers.
"I think the other two young ladies look like sunken fishes and geese, so it's better to choose the jewelry you like here."
Seeing that Xu Lan didn't say anything, the boss continued to speak: "How about being my apology to my son?" ”
"Doing business, I've wronged you."
Xu Lan couldn't help but smile and shook his head, this guy... What a human spirit.
